Scenes Black Hole environment: Apocalyptic Relaxation

Do you want environments that don't suck? Too bad!!!? This one sucks really hard, because it's set near a black hole!

The environment has a relaxing platform with sofas and glowing trees, surrounded by flowing water, with your colorful home planet on one side, and a rotating black hole on the other side. A place to chill out before your planet is consumed, hence the name: Apocalyptic Relaxation.

Huge thanks to VamFantasy and Hazmhox whose environments were an inspiration for this one.

How to use:

1. Set VaM preferences to Pixel Light Count=6
2. Load the environment. Can be done two ways: Load the included scene to check it out, or load the provided subscene preset for the environment as shown in photo above.
3. Create a new SubScene, then load subscene preset 'apocalyptic relaxation.json' from this var. Then you can customize the environment with Settings UI as shown in photo above. The toggle is hidden inside the table next to sofas.

NOTES:

• The subscene preset for the environment has PostMagic disabled by default, as loading two PostMagic instances in a scene glitches out. So remove existing PostMagic plugin before loading the environment in your scene.
• The scene can be a bit heavy on fps. It includes 6 lights. To regain fps, you can turn off things in the UI: 1) turn off the black hole or, 2) turn off sofa lights which removes 4 spot lights, and lets you add your own lighting.
• You can also load parts of the environment like floating orbs, black hole and fire portal separately as subscene presets.

What's included:

• Black Hole themed environment, as demo scene and subscene preset. Also has separate subscene presets for Black Hole, Floating Orbs and Fire Portal.
• PostMagic preset, that works well with this scene. You can use the included LUT in your scenes, as it mimics the popular TiSeb.Colortone tonemapper with just a LUT, no CUA asset.
• A basic 4 spot lights setup, to light the scene. Feel free to turn it off from settings, and use your own.
